Yes I think they will be broken quite easily going by todays output. 

Rob K shared this link yesterday which shows the 2019 heatwave temps, many of those figures on the maps are records Microsoft Word - 2019_007_july_heatwave.docx (metoffice.gov.uk)

However Manchester and Leeds can never officially break their records as there are no longer weather stations there. They would have done in 2019 i think had there been weather stations there.   Somewhere just north of Manchester got 33.9c in 2019, and Bingley at 267m to the west of Leeds got 33.5c, so you would assume 35c has already been broken in the UHI's themselves.  Could be 36-38c Tuesday perhaps. 

Did it start working again when the weather cooled down, or did you have to get it repaired?

Are people's domestic underground pipework getting damaged by the dry ground, or it just the bigger mains. 

I remember during 2018 freeze, there were burst pipes in you area 

Why on earth not?!

The met office says the chances of hitting 40c are less than 10%

Despite the appearance of some really concerning charts on the latest model output, the BBC/Meteogroup is forecasting a temperature of only 29° down in Hawick on Tuesday.

However, even that is hotter than what it was at any time when I was down there last year (the highest temperature back then was only 27°C with even that, feeling more than hot enough as it is).

Furthermore, the Met Office on its own website is still  forecasting a maximum temperature of 30°C in Hawick on Tuesday and what is even more scary is that my phone app is now forecasting a temperature of 32°C on that same day in that same location.

As time goes on, the model output charts just keep getting even more scary and as that is happening, those temperature forecasts just keep on going up.

This has to be seen as very concerning indeed not just in terms of the potential impacts of this upcoming heatwave, but also in terms of our entire future on this planet given the absolutely shocking regularity with which these high temperature records always seem to be broken these days.

iPhone app is now showing 34C on Monday and 37C on Tuesday in Manchester. 

Absolutely historical to see this kind of data flying around, even if it doesn’t actually verify. 

No heatwave down here.

Lovely and warm today with stiff breeze from NE and hopefully warm and sunny for the next few days.

The air feels unusually clear and not muggy at all which may change over the next few days.

We could reach 25/26 degrees on Monday

Of note is the moderate to rough seas which are expected to continue until Monday so RNLI could be busy this weekend!

Visiting my daughter in Gent next week - that will feel very different!

I bet Leconfield will be showing 40C 

Just had a look at the overnight temperatures in Spain. The minimum in Madrid was 27.4C. Scorchio!

Fresher here which is nice.

I'm polishing off my camera to take more photos of Cambridge University Botanic Garden weather station, which is just around the corner from me. It would be quite something to set the record twice in a row. Back in 2019 there was quite a bit of bare soil around it, not sure if the plantings have changed this year.

Yes, it was nice to be just a few hundred metres from where the record was set that day. Not so nice to have chosen a two day away break in Cambridge in a hotel with no air conditioning with my wife who basically gets ill at temperatures over 23C !

Weather apps starting to spit out 37s and 38s for my area now

On the GFES 06 hrs, whilst there are only 5 Ps showing 40 degrees over my location at 6pm on Monday, the mean of all the outcomes is 36.

I know that is>100 hrs away but it represents quite some consistency in the 30 possibilities and I've never seen numbers like it.

40% chance that the record for the highest minimum temperature could be broken next week - Met office

23.9c is the record

Met Office have 34°C here for Tuesday. Off of past experiences, you can usually add a degree or two to that, so 35°C maybe even 36°C? Pretty extraordinary for rural Northern England!

A minimum of 23°C for Monday night too!

Never thought I would see myself posting this in mid summer but from a weather entusiast perspective it's quite exciting actually - same for when we get a cold and snowy spell from an easterly but more worrying given that many households don't have air con! My partner is Romanian and use to this heat but even for her this will be too hot. I for one am not looking forward to these dizzy highs and overnight lows of +25c - as if the past week hasn't been hot enough:

15:00 temperature on Monday 18th: +40c in London

If anything it could be hotter and these temperatures have been upgraded too!

Tuesday 19th at 09:00am

People waking up to temperatures already in the mid 30'sC:

I don’t know why John Hammond even try’s with these people.

Look at the comments in the thread, more nut jobs who refuse to believe experts and who harp back that good old days.

A lot of these people will carry on like anymore normal day and then probably end up in hospital.

Yes. Still 23.9c.
